Muammar Gaddaffy

Describes da bloodthirsty monster dat da perpetually-irritable "little black duck" in da Warner Brothers cartoons became when hunting grizzly bears.

Daffy Duck is temperish and cranky enough just ordinarily, but give him a rifle during bear-hunting season and he turns into a regular Muammar Gaddaffy!

locumotive

Da creaky handcar dat Homer Bedloe had to wheezingly/fumingly perform his classic "Up, down! Up, down! Up, down!" routine with in order to travel from Hooterville to Pixley whenever he got left behind by da Hooterville Cannonball.

Da infamous "pump to operate" contraption wasn't actually da only "locumotive" dat was shown in da "Petticoat Junction" series --- there were actually two "substitutes for da real thing" devices, da other being da converted-Model-T "Hooterville Flivverball".

knitwit

Somebody who thinks others will go totally ga-ga over his horrible-looking woven-yarn creations.

John thinks dat people should admire his "labor of love" worsted-weight comforter, but any knitwit could tell dat it was just created on a sliding-head loom dat actually did virtually all da work!

bullistics

Da study of da path of a charging horned male cattle from da moment it gets mad all da way up to da moment of impact with whatever object made it upset.

If you take away a bull's credit card --- or never even issue it one to begin with --- then it won't be able to charge in da first place, and so there will never be an occasion to run bullistics.

dual-consent state

Every one of da "fabulous fifty" when it comes to whether a couple performs a bouncy-bouncy.

Whether or not da outraged/enraged "paw" of a swollen-tummied "little pumpkin" is aware dat (A) you and said "vulnerable virgin" had indeed both agreed to "take da plunge" --- literally! --- and (2) you live in a dual-consent state may not matter all dat much when da time comes for a shotgun wedding --- if you're lookin' dawn da business-end of a double-barreled scatter-blaster, it really doesn't matter whether or "not" you truly are willing to tie da "knot"!

duel-consent state

A U.S. territory where both parties hafta agree before a sword- or gun-based fight can take place.

Buford "Mad Dog" Tannen seemed to forget (or at least didn't care) dat California --- like all American commonwealths --- was a"duel-consent state", and so he had no right to demand dat Marty --- er, Clint, rather --- participate in a "quick-draw" dispute-settlement. Being called "chicken" or "yellah" optional.

genieyes

Refers to either (1) a super-brainy-and-skillful denizen of a glass bottle or brass lighting-device who always agrees to whatever wish you ask of him, or (2) a similarly-smart human who is able to convince da smoke-cloud-like entity described in Example #1 to always be so agreeable --- it may not be quite so easy as da fairy tales have typically led you to believe, either, as da hilarious story about da middle-aged guy who asked da genie to create a bridge across da Pacific Ocean to Hawaii, but then was obliged to make another wish 'cuz da genie said dat building a bridge dat long would be too difficult.

You don't have to be a "genieyes" to get Aladdin's vaporous buddy to consent to carry out your wishes, since he is already obligated to obey anyone who possesses da magic lamp.
